Here's a take on Tylee. I'm not skilled enough to create braids, but her eye, skin, and hair color is correct. I'm not certain if her cloak is quite correct; maybe it should be darker? I put her in a jungle background to prove that I read her backstory. :3

Damn, you work fast... very nice! No worries about the braiding; the short hair works too, and the character is more about the concept than a very specific picture in my mind. One minor tweak; as a servant of Yondalla, do you think you could work her colors into the design? I pictured a yellow cloak and green tabard originally, but whatever works well with the design makes me happy.

Also, I'm trying to put a token together in a similar style for Rocco too... it's still a Work In Progress:

Heh. I figure I've got to take another flaw for Tali...

Worst Luck

You seem to always fall short at the worst possible moment, right when it matters most.
Prerequisite: None
Effect: Once per game session, you automatically fail a d20 roll of the DM's choosing. There is no way to reverse this decision, and you must accept the consequences. The DM, however, cannot make you fail a dice roll that will directly lead to your death (e.g. cannot automatically fail a save vs death or balance check that will drop you into a deep cavern.) However, indirect and other people's deaths are always welcome...
Benefit: +1 Feat

Have fun Skyrunner. :3

Have fun Skyrunner. :3

I'll write up another character sheet... :P

Maybe a Monk/Fighter/Fist of the Forest/Tempest (I'm going to have a lot of fun with that)? It's been a while since I've had to look at monk feats and prestige classes.

EDIT: It's better than I thought. I have +10/+10/+5/+5 full attacks with 2d6+2 damage per hit. I haven't even gotten to the magic items yet. :3

Ah, OK. The sheet said a deep green cloak. ^^^; Anyway, it was an easy fix:

Hey guys-I was thinking. Instead of double looting with my char and alt char, does anyone mind if Riawilde takes no gold or selling loot, but only the occasional item she can use?

In return, I figure I can take a crafting feat like brew potion or something, and I can make money from the party that way, while giving you all discounts. Of course, this means you guys will actually have to use my services, so suggestions are welcome.

Does this sound like a plan?

I wouldn't mind that. The items that I want probably will have to be bought, so it's a win/win situation.

Cheaper stuff? Yes.
Very, very yes.

I forgot to add my extra spell from level 2 Master Specialist, so I added Explosive Runes to my spellbook. I think I need to invest in some blank pieces of paper (or maybe a spellbook, for 100 pages for slightly cheaper per page :P), and use Mage Hand to shove the paper in peoples' faces during combat, with a very short message (like "hi") that people would have to try very hard to avoid reading fully. Maybe for bonus points I'll cast explosive runes on a piece of paper every day, and by the time we actually get into combat it'll be like 24d6 force damage in a 10' radius...

And just for MOAR BONUS POINTS, add Explosive spell to one or more of the castings. Explosive Explosive Runes.  :P

In other news, my character sheet is now fluffier.

I don't plan on double-looting either, since starting with the next session I'm just going to alternate who I'm taking, starting with Toman. I'll also try not to take much of the loot; in that respect we're somewhat lucky because Toman's armor is permanent so any magic medium/heavy armor we find can either go to Solifiuge (if he wants/needs it) or sold and the revenue distributed evenly. Basically my wants boil down to this, in order of most to least important:

Stat (mainly Str/Con; neither character will benefit from more Dex since they're both at the max for their armor, and I don't really need more Int, Wis, or Cha) and save boosting accessories
Greatswords for Kanesrae
Dwarven Waraxes for Toman
Heavy Shields for Toman
Maybe light armor for Kanesrae, although her current set will probably be serviceable for quite some time

As for Dwarmin's idea, judging from shoruke and Fool's reaction it sounds good to me.

'Hi' doesn't work :3 It has to be 'Explosive Runes'... Such as 'I prepared Explosive Runes this morning'. People get to read it anyways :3 Better look at rules.

Personally, it shouldn't be 'Hi'. >.>

I just got hold of my copy of Adobe Illustrator, and I'm locked out of my house.
I'll probably finish map this week.

Anyone up for a mini-session against a minor army today?


Also, hope everyone's OK for a certain homebrew (courtesy of Giant in the Playground) Divination spell, Terrible Secret.

Actually, I'll probably be sticking to light and medium; my character relies on mobility and battlefield control, but can still be pretty hard to hit. I'm still going to have to reroll/update her for the campaign though... should I use point buy, and standard 9th level starting gold? Or is it 10th now? Any other things I should remember when rolling my character, Sky?

Also, am I correct in assuming that almost everyone rolled Wild/Nature heroes? Interesting party composition!

Also also, thanks again Serious for the pog; it makes me quite happy! Is there any way you could give the background/border treatment to this guy as well?
Spoiler: Rocco Final (click to show/hide)

Rocco is pretty much the best Paladin mount... with his climb speed and battle jump, he basically lets them do a pounce-charge from the rooftops and/or trees above, and smites the heck out of evil. It's at least 20% cooler than a pony. Also, I've got all the rules for quick reference on my Mythweavers sheet, both for ride checks and all the acrobatic nonsense I plan on doing, to make things easier. D&D certainly does have a lot of rules for things.

@Solifuge: My two chars are the Elven Stoic/Nature Hero currently gracing my sig (image courtesy of SeriousConcentrate enterprises ltd.) and an amoral Dwarf Rogue/fighter. :P

@Sky: I could attend up to three hours from now before my other maptools game starts. It gets pretty dicey at that point.

@Solifuge. Sure. ^^^

@Sky: I have to go to college in 3h20m, so that's how long I have today. :P

- How's this background? :D

Sky, as the DM, you can basically do whatever you want. I don't know what this Terrible Secret is, and I'll make a point of not looking it up; it's more fun that way!

As for a session today, I still need to reroll my character, so I probably won't be good to go. Also, for reference, in ~3 hours I work for a few hours most weekdays, but am free most of the rest of the day, plus late evenings (~6 hours from now).

EDIT: Freaking fantastic! You are a scholar and a gentle-elf.

@Solifuge: You can probably play it by ear and throw in, as long as you have your attack bonuses and basic stuff prepared.

But, it seems everyone has to go in three hours today. If we're going to start we'd better do so soon. :P
